“I keep seeing speculation that Lovie wants to ermine the Schiano stink from One Buc Place. I would like to be enlightened on which of the players drafted under Schiano had been shown the door thus far?”

I’m not sure the posters in question(you’d have to ask *each* one to be sure) meant that those players were shown the door, but instead that they are not going to be the ‘face’ (starters) of the team. (Revis is the exception, about the door thingy). But the QB has been ‘replaced’, as well as most of the D-line and O-line. And I’d be willing to bet that the starting receiving corp from 2013 has a much different face come September. Half the DBs could be new and one third the LBs. It looks like the only position untouched is RB.
Yea, I’d have to agree with those other posters, that Lovie wants this to look like *his* team. IIRC, he even said as much.
And after last year, do you blame him?

If lovie gives Glennon the same opportunity as Schiano gave Freeman I’ve no doubt He will win the starting job. If he doesn’t win it in fair competition then so be it, but i believe He will. One thing about Lovie is don’t take everything He says to the media as Gospel.

Shame that he is going to suffer due to the HC firing.Glennon outplayed both QB picked ahead of him. If not for the sad state of the Bucs his season would be lauded…….

Thu, 20 Mar 2014 23:12:22 +0000http://www.joebucsfan.com/?p=109593#comment-3381779I like all the Glennon fans comments. He is better than McCown, smarter, taller and younger. As a starter or a backup QB, the Bucs are fortunate to have him. I expect Glennon to prove his worth.

It is truly amazing that a wannabe hack could parlay his poor performance at this last gig into an even better one with NFL.com.

Thu, 20 Mar 2014 20:32:55 +0000http://www.joebucsfan.com/?p=109593#comment-3381732I’d be curious to see what the Bucs Brass is telling Glennon during all of this debacle or as Penn suggests, not telling the player anything.

Thu, 20 Mar 2014 20:23:44 +0000http://www.joebucsfan.com/?p=109593#comment-3381726There are soooo many possible scenarios, that my head hurts when I think about them. But since we’re all chipping at something, let’s see which ones I have, and ya’ll can tell me which ones I’ve missed.
Glennon does not fit (for whatever reason) into Tedford’s offense.
Lovie wants to ‘wash’ as much of Schiano out of One Buc Place as he can.
Lovie/Tedford believe Kafka has more potential than Glennon.
Lovie/Tedford believe that Glennon is the future of this team, but want other teams to believe they will take a QB at #7 (if one is there). This would give them the opportunity to trade down and garner more choices in a ‘rich’ draft.
(As a side note, the Jets have 12 draft picks and could afford to ‘buy’ a can’t miss player)
Lovie/Tedford see there is ‘potential’ in Glennon, but they haven’t seen enough to tell how much higher his ceiling is, if he had competent coaching/players around him.
OK, what did I miss?
Oh yea, Johnny Gazelle is the kind of QB that Lovie is hoping his defense gets to ‘play with’ (some animals just love to play with their food). ;^)

Thu, 20 Mar 2014 20:10:15 +0000http://www.joebucsfan.com/?p=109593#comment-3381711Lovie and crew better watch how they handle the QB situation. We all know they had to promise the starting job to McCown to get him to sign here. This is going to be interesting to watch how this all unfolds but many fans believe Glennon is getting a raw deal by not letting him compete for the job. Again lovie better watch as this may put a ding in his armor. It may be a new day in Tampa bay but rain could be coming if Glennon is not handled properly

Not saying he can or can’t ever be a starter, nor does Rosenthall. In fact he talks about positive traits..poise and accuracy.

Because leonard johnson should only make the team as our 6th string CB. Hes great as a 6th string CB because hes good in ST. But he shouldnt be on the field anymore. Even though i love the dude personally.

Thu, 20 Mar 2014 19:47:35 +0000http://www.joebucsfan.com/?p=109593#comment-3381683Hey Knuck buc, you realize Brad Childress and Leslie Frazier combined went to the playoffs more than Lovie right? And they are both considered horrible coaches right?

Also, Lovie made the playoffs at a 33% clip. Andy Reid? 64%….in a much tougher division. Lovie better have learned from his mistakes, but based off annointing Josh McCown (and Brandon Myers too) as insta-staters doesn’t inspire much confidence.

And don’t use the draft last year either. Because then I’ll use that there are 4 QBs in NFL history with 10 more TDs than INTs. Glennon being one. The others are some scrub named Marino, some loser named Russell Wilson, and well RGKnee who might have become great if Shannahan didn’t waste him. Amazingly that a franchise as historically awful as the Bucs, particularly at the QB position, can simply jettision the guy who had the best performance in the NFL’s toughest venue last year.

Ha, I wouldn’t go that far. 2007 was pretty bad with Jamarcus Russell and Brady Quinn in the 1st and Kolb and Trent Edwards probably being the 2 best in the class (though you may be right, Edwards and Kolb may have more career success than the best QB in the class last year…. Glennon). And even worse was 2002. Carr, Harrington and Ramsey all in the 1st round. David Garrard in the 4th round had the best Career AV and our new starting QB McCown (3rd round) is the only other QB still in the league from that draft. Last year was bad, but it’s yet to be seen if it was the worst. At least there was only 1 QB selected in the first round last year, that helps make it not so bad.
